To me it makes more sense to have only 1~2 points in stomp and then max his aura second (IMO Astral should be maxed first). I find it really to be good for midgame teamfights (the whole reason to be picking him I think). I guess really the question is should I be prioritizing stomp over aura, or should I just worry about aura for the midgame? | ||

http://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=143027041 Luckily TC's skillset is pretty much fixed before lvl6 (you always make lvl2 stomp to combo with the ulti while maxing spirit) so I included the skillset for it there. The significance of Aura doesnt kick in after your team have the dps/combo damage to utilize it, if you could kill the enemy in early/early-mid game then chances is that you won't really need the help of the Aura, while getting lvl1 aura before lvl10 can be situationally useful. | ||

Max spirit, 2 in stomp if you can get away with it, 3 in stomp in situations where you need the extra sleep time (e.g. against a QoP or storm), rest in aura. Get ult at 6 obviously. There are scenarios where it makes sense to delay ult later on, simply because the only thing you get out of it ranks are 10% MS slow and 1s slow duration. | ||

Actually im not too sure. I'd have to test it, but I'm pretty sure you can't. | ||

I feel like midas is the stronger choice before radiance in most cases. Either go Maelstrom, or got Radiance. I can't in good heart suggest both. | ||

I saw EE and Blitz (seperately) doing it. you just r-click and right click on who you want to attack. as soon as you get in range you should attack even in ball lightning. in the same sense, you can use items while in ball lightning (so orchid silence should go off before you finish ulti). | ||

I see that is the advice in guides, but when actually playing I don't seem to be able to do much with it sadly. if you cant find a use for phase shift before 6 then you are playing puck wrong. Even if you dont want it to dodge spells (an unlikely scenario) you will want it to trade autoattacks. | ||

(starting items too please) if you can get in an autoattack trade with the shadow strike then yes (due to blind from laser). the range on laser is 550 while the range on shadow strike is 400, so qop really has to commit to a trade. starting items would be some combination of tango/salve/mantle/branches. maxing out laser vs qop is really good, whether you go for rockets for more burst or march to farm ancients / push out lane is more personal choice. | ||

Me and a friend we're testing ball lighting damage and in one of the runs he hit me during ulti. We tried to replicate it but didn't work, no idea how you're supposed to do it... Another question: how long do creeps give vision of the surrounding area after they die? it's something i gotta start abusing as it seems very useful to know | ||
